Diplomacy stalls as Iran flags deep gaps in US talks amid mediation push

Iran says deep, unresolved gaps persist in talks with Washington even as Pakistan-led mediation intensifies, insisting on ending the war and stabilizing the Strait of Hormuz. Washington says some progress is possible but major differences remain, notably over uranium enrichment and control of Hormuz. The diplomacy unfolds amid regional flashpoints in Gaza and Lebanon and rising oil prices, complicating efforts to reach a peace agreement.

Draft US-Iran Accord Emerges Through Pakistan Mediation

A claimed draft accord mediated by Pakistan between the US and Iran envisions an immediate ceasefire, non-targeting of infrastructure, guaranteed freedom of navigation with a joint monitoring mechanism, gradual sanctions relief in exchange for Iran’s compliance, and starting talks on outstanding issues within seven days; the claim is unconfirmed, but markets reacted positively to the reported development.

Pakistan-Mediated Near-Term US-Iran Truce Gains Momentum

Pakistan says the US and Iran are close to a basic interim deal to end the war and reopen the Hormuz Strait, with a two-phase framework: an immediate ceasefire and shipping resumption, followed by talks on Iran’s nuclear program; Tehran would demand unfrozen assets and a longer enrichment moratorium, while Washington seeks broader settlement, but gaps remain and the risk of renewed fighting persists.

Trump extends Iran ceasefire amid Iran’s fractured leadership

President Trump announced an open-ended extension of the Iran ceasefire after a White House meeting, citing a “fractured” Iranian government and asking Iran’s leaders to present a unified proposal. The move avoids a resumption of war and maintains the naval blockade, while negotiations in Islamabad with Pakistani mediators continue to hinge on a response from Iran’s Supreme Leader and internal Iranian factions. Iran’s side pushed back, saying the extension is meaningless and warning of a potential retaliatory strike, keeping the potential for further conflict on the table.

Iran signals no talks as Pakistan hosts high-stakes U.S.-Iran diplomacy

Iran says it will not send negotiators to Islamabad for a new round of U.S.-Iran talks, accusing Washington of violating the ceasefire, while Pakistan presses for multi-day negotiations and a possible MoU to extend the ceasefire. Tehran’s 10-point proposal remains the framework for talks, and a U.S. delegation is headed to Pakistan, leaving the path forward uncertain and contingent on Tehran’s participation.

Iran Tightens Strait of Hormuz Grip as Ceasefire Deadline Approaches

Iran says it will keep restricting ships through the Strait of Hormuz as long as the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports remains in place, complicating mediators’ efforts to extend a two-week ceasefire. With roughly one-fifth of global oil trade passing through the strait, the move risks deepening the energy crisis and sparking renewed fighting, even as Pakistan-led talks seek a new round of negotiations.

Islamabad could host new rounds of US-Iran talks as ceasefire deadline looms

Trump said US-Iran peace talks could resume in Islamabad within two days, praising Pakistan’s army chief as mediator; Islamabad is rushing to schedule a meeting before the two-week ceasefire ends, with discussions centered on Iran’s uranium enrichment moratorium and highly enriched uranium stockpiles, set against a backdrop of a US naval blockade and Hormuz closure that have pushed oil prices higher.

Islamabad Hosts Direct US-Iran Talks to Press for Durable Ceasefire

Direct, face-to-face talks between the United States and Iran began in Islamabad as part of a three-way process with Pakistan to secure a durable ceasefire, led for the U.S. by Vice President JD Vance and for Iran by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf. Negotiators are addressing Iran’s redlines, compensation for damage, and steps toward reopening the Strait of Hormuz, all amid broader regional tensions with Lebanon and Israel and ongoing energy-market jitters.

Pakistan steers US-Iran talks toward a cautious restart

Pakistan hosts proximity talks in Islamabad to keep US-Iran negotiations alive after a Pakistan-mediated two-week ceasefire, aiming for a modest outcome that extends dialogue rather than finalizing a deal. The US team is led by Vice President JD Vance and includes Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner; Iran’s delegation is expected to be led by Abbas Araghchi and Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, with Pakistani mediators shuttling between rooms. While signs point to de-escalation, major sticking points remain over Iran’s nuclear enrichment, sanctions relief, and guarantees related to the Strait of Hormuz, set against broader regional tensions including Lebanon. The goal of the first round is to lay groundwork for continued negotiations rather than a breakthrough.

Pakistan Hosts High-Stakes US-Iran Talks as Ceasefire Hangs in the Balance

Islamabad prepares to host weekend talks between the United States and Iran, mediated by Pakistan, as part of a two-week ceasefire in a war that has drawn in regional powers and unsettled global energy markets. US Vice President JD Vance will lead the American delegation, joined by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, while Iran’s side is led by Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Araghchi. The talks, held at the Serena Hotel and potentially lasting up to 15 days, seek a settlement to the conflict and a broader arrangement over issues including Iran’s proposed 10-point plan and U.S. demands on enriched uranium. Lebanon and ongoing Israeli strikes loom as major obstacles, and deep mistrust suggests a quick breakthrough is unlikely, though Pakistan’s mediating role is central to any progress.
